First results of randomised trials on advanced plaque modification techniques and intracoronary imaging
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session presents the first results of randomized trials investigating the use of advanced plaque modification techniques, such as rotational atherectomy, lithotripsy, and laser atherectomy, as well as the role of intracoronary imaging (OCT and IVUS) in guiding percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The session aims to...
Cracking open the discussion on the clinical experience with intravascular lithotripsy in acute coronary syndromes
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
Explore this session to uncover the common association between calcium and acute coronary syndrome, and how intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) offers a safe solution for calcified lesions, with comparable procedural success rates. However, note that ACS cases involving calcium may lead to higher major adverse cardiac events...
Solving challenging PCI with laser atherectomy: the forgotten Swiss knife?
15 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
Watch this session to enhance your understanding of laser atherectomy fundamentals, recognize its role in addressing complex lesions like in-stent restenosis and uncrossable lesions, and acquire tips and techniques for ensuring procedural efficiency and safety.
Cracking calcium: best practices to integrate intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) into your calcium management algorithms
19 May 2022 – From EuroPCR 2022
Consult this session to learn about the best practices and tips to optimise application of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) in coronary vasculature, and to discover some new calcium management algorithms to improve PCI outcomes as well as the latest technological advancements of peripheral IVL for pre-TAVI access.
How to manage uncrossable lesions in ACS
15 Nov 2021
Find out more about how the authors managed a 79-year-old male presenting with ACS and lateral ischemia with a calcified and tortuous left circumflex that could not be crossed with balloons... and a 61-year-old male with inferior STEMI presenting with an “undilatable” lesion of the right coronary artery...
